Dear Aspinwall family, I just wanted to let you know that Joe was a great person and a wonderful friend to me in High School.

I hope god has eased the pain a little and I want you all to know that you are in our prayers. Much love

They say time heals all wounds - I will have to see. One thing is for sure, your presence resides in my heart, so you will never be forgotten.

Joe's Sunset

To-night the west o'er-brims with warmest dyes; Its chalice overflows With pools of purple colouring the skies, Aflood with gold and rose; And some hot soul seems throbbing close to mine, As sinks the sun within that world of wine.

I seem to hear a bar of music float And swoon into the west; My ear can scarcely catch the whispered note, But something in my breast Blends with that strain, till both accord in one, As cloud and colour blend at set of sun.

And twilight comes with grey and restful eyes, As ashes follow flame. But O! I heard a voice from those rich skies Call tenderly my name; It was as if some priestly fingers stole In benedictions o'er my lonely soul.

I know not why, but all my being longed And leapt at that sweet call; My heart outreached its arms, all passion thronged And beat against Fate's wall, Crying in utter homesickness to be Near to a heart that loves and leans to me. AT SUNSET
